I was only very young when Laker flew so I dont remember what they did.
And cant recall Virgins Early days.
Perhaps someone could fill me in .
However If Norweigian or even Dare I say Ryanair could do ultra loco in relation to current pricing.
Perhaps theres something in it.
Also Ryanair might even make it work from Lesser Airports like Newcastle for example to New York.
And if it works I wonder what the airline industry in terms of players will be left if this idea takes off.
